Extension
(the validity date of the certificate is extended, and the scope is not changed, which means no new components are included):
- Certificates 73T and 190P from STM (France). These certificates list Digital CMOS Logic Microcircuits based on 4000B, 54HC, and 54HCT series.
- Certificate 331C from Kyocera AVX (Northern Ireland) lists Base Metal Electrode (BME) Ceramic Capacitors included in the detailed specification ESCC 3009/041.
Removal:
- Certificate 340A from Cobham Microwave (France). This certificate listed Ka-Band Low Power Isolators and Circulators with SMA2.9 Coaxial Connectors included in the detail specification ESCC 3202/026. The removal is due to low sales volume and a change in production location.

Introduction to Norris-Landzberg equation for thermal cycling test definition
The Norris-Landzberg equation is that it is required by ECSS in many calculations. For example, ECSS-Q-ST-70-61 and several ESA Memos indicate that the use of this equation is mandatory in order to assess if the qualification perform of PBAs covers the environment of the mission. Similar methodologies are widely referenced in MIL and NASA standards
